Abstract
Smallpox was eradicated in 1980 but remains a biothreat due to the potential release of variola virus into the general population. Brincidofovir, the second medicine approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to treat smallpox, is metabolized by oxidative and hydrolytic pathways. The oxidative pathway is initiated by cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2), an enzyme lacking clinical probes for drug interaction studies. The aim of this work was to assess the impact of reduced activity CYP4F2 variants (rs2108622, C/T and T/T) on brincidofovir pharmacokinetics as a surrogate for drug inhibition. Genotyping was performed on blood from healthy participants receiving oral (n = 261) and intravenous (IV, n = 49) brincidofovir across 6 phase 1 trials. Plasma concentrations were measured by validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry methods. After oral administration, subjects with the lowest activity CYP4F2 genotype (T/T) had up to 36% higher AUCinf and 29% higher Cmax while subjects with the moderate activity CYP4F2 genotype (C/T) had similar Cmax and AUCinf compared to those with the wild-type genotype. Little to no increase in brincidofovir exposure parameters was observed following IV administration. Based on the lack of significant increases in brincidofovir plasma concentrations in subjects with low activity CYP4F2, a clinically meaningful drug-drug interaction is not expected with CYP4F2 inhibitor and brincidofovir coadministration.

Comparative Intra-Subject Analysis of Gene Expression and Protein Abundance of Major and Minor Drug Metabolizing Enzymes in Healthy Human Jejunum and Liver. Clin Pharmacol Ther 2024; 115:221-230.

Abstract
First pass metabolism by phase I and phase II enzymes in the intestines and liver is a major determinant of the oral bioavailability of many drugs. Several studies analyzed expressions of major drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs), such as CYP3A4 and UGT1A1 in the human gut and liver. However, there is still a lack of knowledge regarding other DMEs (i.e., "minor" DMEs), although several clinically relevant drugs are affected by those enzymes. Moreover, there is very limited intra-subject data on hepatic and intestinal expression levels of minor DMEs. To fill this gap of knowledge, we analyzed gene expression (quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and protein abundance (targeted proteomics) of 24 clinically relevant DMEs, that is, carboxylesterases (CES), UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT), and cytochrome P450 (CYP)-enzymes. We performed our analysis using jejunum and liver tissue specimens from the same 11 healthy organ donors (8 men and 3 women, aged 19-60 years). Protein amounts of all investigated DMEs, with the exception of CYP4A11, were detected in human liver samples. CES2, CYP2C18, CYP3A4, and UGT2B17 protein abundance was similar or even higher in the jejunum, and all other DMEs were found in higher amounts in the liver. Significant correlations between gene expression and protein levels were observed only for 2 of 15 jejunal, but 13 of 23 hepatic DMEs. Intestinal and hepatic protein amounts only significantly correlated for CYP3A4 and UGT1A3. Our results demonstrated a notable variability between the individuals, which was even higher in the intestines than in the liver. Our intrasubject analysis of DMEs in the jejunum and liver from healthy donors, may be useful for physiologically-based pharmacokinetic-based modeling and prediction in order to improve efficacy and safety of oral drug therapy.

Quantification of drug metabolising enzymes and transporter proteins in the paediatric duodenum via LC-MS/MS proteomics using a QconCAT technique. Eur J Pharm Biopharm 2023; 191:68-77.

Abstract
Characterising the small intestine absorptive membrane is essential to enable prediction of the systemic exposure of oral formulations. In particular, the ontogeny of key intestinal Drug Metabolising Enzymes and Transporter (DMET) proteins involved in drug disposition needs to be elucidated to allow for accurate prediction of the PK profile of drugs in the paediatric cohort. Using pinch biopsies from the paediatric duodenum (n = 36; aged 11 months to 15 years), the abundance of 21 DMET proteins and two enterocyte markers were quantified via LC-MS/MS. An established LCMS nanoflow method was translated to enable analysis on a microflow LC system, and a new stable-isotope-labelled QconCAT standard developed to enable quantification of these proteins. Villin-1 was used to standardise abundancy values. The observed abundancies and ontogeny profiles, agreed with adult LC-MS/MS-based data, and historic paediatric data obtained via western blotting. A linear trend with age was observed for duodenal CYP3A4 and CES2 only. As this work quantified peptides on a pinch biopsy coupled with a microflow method, future studies using a wider population range are very feasible. Furthermore, this DMET ontogeny data can be used to inform paediatric PBPK modelling and to enhance the understanding of oral drug absorption and gut bioavailability in paediatric populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Midazolam is the preferred clinical probe drug for assessing CYP3A activity. We have previously shown substantial intraindividual variability in midazolam absolute bioavailability and clearance in patients with obesity before and after weight loss induced by gastric bypass or a strict diet. The objective was to describe intraindividual variability in absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam in healthy individuals without obesity. METHODS This study included 33 healthy volunteers [28 ± 8 years, 21% males, body mass index (BMI) 23 ± 2.5 kg/m2] subjected to four pharmacokinetic investigations over a 2-month period (weeks 0, 2, 4, and 8). Semi-simultaneous oral (0 h) and intravenous (2 h later) midazolam dosing was used to assess absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam. RESULTS At baseline, mean absolute bioavailability and clearance were 46 ± 18% and 31 ± 10 L/h, respectively. The mean coefficient of variation (CV, %) for absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam was 26 ± 15% and 20 ± 10%, respectively. Approximately one-third had a CV > 30% for absolute bioavailability, while 13% had a CV > 30% for clearance. CONCLUSIONS On average, intraindividual variability in absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam was low to moderate; however, especially absolute bioavailability showed considerable variability in a relatively large proportion of the individuals.

Abstract
Consumption of diets rich in fruits and vegetables, which provide some fat-soluble vitamins and many phytochemicals, is associated with a lower risk of developing certain degenerative diseases. It is well accepted that not only the parent compounds, but also their derivatives formed upon enzymatic or nonenzymatic transformations, can produce protective biological effects. These derivatives can be formed during food storage, processing, or cooking. They can also be formed in the lumen of the upper digestive tract during digestion, or via metabolism by microbiota in the colon. This review compiles the known metabolites of fat-soluble vitamins and fat-soluble phytochemicals (FSV and FSP) that have been identified in food and in the human digestive tract, or could potentially be present based on the known reactivity of the parent compounds in normal or pathological conditions, or following surgical interventions of the digestive tract or consumption of xenobiotics known to impair lipid absorption. It also covers the very limited data available on the bioavailability (absorption, intestinal mucosa metabolism) and summarizes their effects on health. Notably, despite great interest in identifying bioactive derivatives of FSV and FSP, studying their absorption, and probing their putative health effects, much research remains to be conducted to understand and capitalize on the potential of these molecules to preserve health.

Ferulic acid alleviates AFB1-induced duodenal barrier damage in rats via up-regulating tight junction proteins, down-regulating ROCK, competing CYP450 enzyme and activating GST. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2022; 241:113805.

Abstract
Previous studies reported that Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) causes cell damage through its metabolite aflatoxin B1-8, 9-epoxide (AFBO), which is catalyzed by CYP450 enzymes. AFBO can be detoxified by glutathione S transferase (GST). Ferulic acid (FA) is known for its antioxidant capacity and intestinal protective function. However, the mechanism of AFB1 causing duodenal injury and the role of FA in AFB1-induced intestinal damage remains unclear. In this study, rats were exposed to AFB1 and treated with FA for 30 days. The results showed that I) FA alleviated the histopathological changes of duodenum and the ultrastructural changes of tight junctions between duodenal epithelial cells induced by AFB1. II) FA reduced the content of AFB1-ALB adduct in blood. III) The low expression of tight junction proteins (Claudin-1 and ZO-1) and the high expression of ROCK1 and ROCK2 induced by AFB1 were significantly reversed by FA. IV) The high expression of CYP2A6 and CYP3A4 were significantly down-regulated by FA, and the activity of GST was promoted by FA. V) The binding affinity of FA to CYP2A6 is very similar to the binding affinity of AFB1 to CYP2A6, which meaning that there is a competitive relationship between FA and AFB1 when conjugating to CYP2A6. These results suggested that FA proved effective in alleviating AFB1-induced duodenal barrier damage via up-regulating tight junction proteins, down-regulating ROCK, competing CYP450 enzyme, and activating GST in duodenal epithelial cells of rats.
